Chapter 171



the next day.

Kenji Hagiwara, who had just gone to the supermarket to do some shopping the day before, appeared in the supermarket again.

He stayed in the vegetable section for a while, as long as he normally would. After making sure that his target hadn't appeared, Hagiwara bought a serving of vegetables and planned to put it in the refrigerator.

He can still cook a little bit, although not as good as Jingguang, nor as skilled as the current Kofutani, but he has no problem supporting himself... But speaking of it, the guy who couldn't enter the kitchen at all back then is now a perfect waiter in a cafe. Kenji Hagiwara can't help but sigh at the horror of time, which almost completely changes a person into someone he doesn't recognize.

And to be honest, isn't it him and Kagemitsu that Kofuku imitated? Hagiwara Kenji scanned the queue in front of the cashier, which was not long but not short, and it was obvious that he would have to wait for a few minutes, and all these random thoughts flashed through his mind.

It has been mentioned before that none of Saiki K.'s superpowers are perfect. No matter how powerful or boring a superpower is, it will have certain limitations or flaws.

When Kenji Hagiwara broke through Saiki K.'s hints on his own, the first problem and sense of dissonance arose in his mind, and he could no longer suppress it.

Kenji Hagihara would not ignore even the slightest doubt, not to mention that there were so many loopholes that it would be difficult for Kenji Hagihara to ignore them.

Kenji Hagiwara's memory ability cannot be compared with that of Sora Morobuchi, but it is still better than that of ordinary people. After all, he is a former policeman.

When he tried to sort out his memories carefully and recall why he became "Pian Yi Xian Ren" and why he had "plastic surgery", he realized that something was wrong.

There was a clear loss of memory, and he was also certain that he had not escaped the bombing seven years ago.

So how did Hagiwara Kenji survive? How did he inexplicably acquire another identity? And how did he manage to survive these seven years?

Even without thinking about it, Kenji Hagiwara can get the answer.

The node of all doubts lies in "Zhu Fu Kong Liang".

Kenji Hagiwara believes in his ability. As long as he can find a loophole, he can get all the answers to the incident. Compared with the Explosive Ordnance Division, his ability may be more suitable for the Investigation Division.

But Kenji Hagiwara did not explore the truth that was right in front of him.

Although they had only known each other for half a month, Hagiwara Kenji seemed to have known Morobuchi Sora for a long time. He knew very clearly that he could not stop him.

As for letting little Furiya go against his brother Morobuchi? Would little Furiya trust what he said? For Hagiwara Kenji, these seven years did not exist, but Hagiwara Kenji still remembered the defensive look that Furiya's guy gave him.

Well, of course it's not just this reason. Hagiwara Kenji would not bear grudges in a place like this.

It was Kenji Hagiwara's turn in the checkout line. He put the things in the basket on the counter, and there was no unnecessary emotion in his black eyes.

Rei Fukiya trusts Kenji Hagiwara, but Toru Amuro doesn't trust Genhito Katayi.

Moreover, even if he told Furuya, there was actually no need for it. Because Furuya himself had already noticed the details before he came back. In this regard, Furuya Rei had much more time than Hagiwara Kenji. It was just that before the real evidence was obtained, Furuya Rei chose to put it on hold for the time being.

Kenji Hagiwara couldn't produce any evidence either.

"Your total consumption is 2,150 yen. How do you want to pay?" the cashier asked with a businesslike smile.

"Cash." Hagiwara Kenji took out his wallet, pulled out three thousand-yuan bills, and waited for the cashier to give him change.

Morobuchi Sora was an unexpectedly simple person. At least Hagiwara Kenji felt that he could easily understand the part that he was willing to show.

Zhu Fu Kong Liang cares about his family, which he heard Jing Guang mention seven years ago. But if his family could stop Kong Liang in time, the current situation would not have happened.

So the family members are allowed, Xiao Jiangu is still in the process of being conquered, and the sister is counted as a family member, so she also needs to be allowed.

If I must describe it, Zhu Fu Kong Liang is like a kite tied by a string. The kite is always floating in the sky, far away from the ground, with only an extremely fragile yet strong kite string pulling it. As long as the string is not broken, it will never deviate from the track.

There are so many kites flying in the sky, but each kite has only one kite string.

After collecting the change, Hagiwara Kenji smiled at the cashier and said, "Thank you for your help."

Carrying some fresh fruits and vegetables, as well as some tools that he hadn't bought yesterday, Kenji Hagiwara walked calmly on his way back to the safe house.

Jinpei, Jingguang, the class leader...their group of five was almost wiped out back then.

Apart from the news about Jinpei Matsuda, no one told Kenji Hagiwara about the other two things. He could only infer the answers through the reactions of the people around him.

And if he could survive, then Jingguang and the others could definitely survive. Hagiwara Kenji pursed his lips unconsciously.

Morofuku Sora Ryo doesn't care about what other people think, and he has no interest in the individual "Hagiwara Kenji" himself. If Hagiwara Kenji doesn't take the initiative, they will naturally become nodding acquaintances.

So no matter what the subsequent plan is, what Zhu Fukongliang wants to do, what he will do, he must be involved in it - as a companion. Otherwise, he will have no chance.

If the person standing here now was Kojinpei... Hagiwara Kenji tried to imagine the scene in his mind.

Then he imagined in his mind the image of his own child, chin raised, tapping his head with a book.

"You didn't even consult me ​​when you saved me. Why should I have to rely on your opinion if I deny you now?" - If Xiao Zhenping said this, he would definitely say this in an arrogant manner, right?

Hagiwara Kenji sighed. But the person standing here was Hagiwara Kenji, not Matsuda Jinpei.

Hagiwara Kenji couldn't deny it, because he knew very well that he was the beneficiary. He didn't know what Morobuchi Sora had done or what he had paid before, but it was definitely not an easy thing.

The words that were spoken last night came from Hagiwara Kenji's true heart, without any other unnecessary purpose. He really only had that one thought at that time.

He was the only one who didn't have the qualifications to deny Morobuku Sora's choice. Those who had the qualifications were his sister, Morobuku Sora's family members, and even Furuya.

Instead of him - the "dead" who survived because of Zhufu Kongliang.

As these random thoughts flashed through his mind, Kenji Hagiwara remembered the pile of textbooks on his desk and couldn't help but sigh deeply.

"Huh? Mr. Pianyi?" A childish voice came from behind.

"Ah! It's the big brother who bumped into Conan that day!" This time it was a girl's voice.

When Hagiwara Kenji turned around, he saw several children standing together. They were the Boy Detective Team that had appeared more than once in the news.

In addition, there was a pink-haired, squinty-eyed young man standing next to them, who was obviously the guardian of the children.

The children were whispering over there, but the noises were clearly heard by Kenji Hagiwara.

To put it simply, several other children surrounded Conan and asked what the relationship between them was.

Kenji Hagiwara subconsciously put on a warmer smile, squatted down and greeted the children with a level gaze: "Hello~"

Hagiwara Kenji raised his head slightly, with a look of appropriate doubt in his eyes: "May I ask who this gentleman is..."

Subaru Okiya showed a surprised expression and asked the children, "Is this someone you know?"

Then he replied to Hagiwara Kenji: "My name is Okiya Subaru, an ordinary graduate student."

"I'm Katai Genjin. Nice to meet you, nice to meet you." Hagiwara Kenji narrowed his eyes, his black eyes revealing a gentleness that made it difficult for people to be on guard, and looked at Okiya Subaru who was smiling with squinting eyes.

Yoshida Ayumi blinked her eyes and said crisply, "Brother Katai looks different from last time?"

Kojima Genta agreed: "It was obviously very rude last time!"

Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya nodded as well. Children are always more sensitive in this regard, and he even said the truth unintentionally: "It doesn't look like a human anymore."

Hagiwara Kenji explained: "I had something urgent to do that day, so I was a little anxious. I'm very sorry. As compensation..."

The silver-gray-haired young man searched in the supermarket bag and found a few mints that he bought to refresh himself. Putting the mints in his palm, Hagiwara Kenji smiled and said, "Can you forgive me?"

These kids were usually very easy to talk to, and even after they only said a few words, they were immediately conquered by Kenji Hagiwara.

Conan Edogawa squinted his eyes, obviously wanting to complain about something, and then he noticed that Kenji Hagiwara stretched his hand towards him. The little detective was stunned for a moment: "Me too?"

This subconscious reaction of distinguishing himself from the child made Hagiwara Kenji look at Edogawa Conan a little more, but his facial expression did not change at all.

After all the children took the candies, Kenji Hagiwara stood up. At this moment, a photo fell out of his clothes and was blown towards Conan Edogawa by a gust of wind.

Conan Edogawa picked up the photo, and his detective instinct made him subconsciously take a look at the picture on it. The position where Subaru Okiya was standing happened to allow him to see the front of the photo -!

Okiya Subaru, or rather Akai Shuichi in disguise, at this moment, his eyes, which had been squinting, slightly opened, revealing a sharp dark green.

Akai Shuichi bent down, took the photo from Conan, and returned it to Hagiwara Kenji, saying in a very natural manner: "It looks like an important photo, right? Keep it carefully."

Hagiwara Kenji first thanked him, stroked the photo with his fingers, and asked curiously, "How did Mr. Okiya know that this photo is important to me?"

Okiya Subaru smiled: "After all, you can tell at a glance that it was taken a long time ago. Since you carry it with you, its importance is self-evident."

Kenji Hagiwara suddenly realized: "So that's how it is."

The silver-gray-haired young man put the photo away, inadvertently revealing the number "127" on the back of the photo, and smiled and said, "This photo is indeed very important to me."
